Starting
Sept. 16 through Sept. 29, guests can get a free small McCafé coffee
during breakfast hours at participating McDonald’s restaurants
in the region. This event builds on McDonald’s first-ever Free Coffee
Event launched in March, where the company gave away millions of cups of
free coffee during the two-week period.
“The
response to our last coffee sampling event in the Northwest Ohio and
Southeast Michigan region was overwhelmingly positive, so
we wanted to give even more customers the morning pick-me-up and the
chance to enjoy McCafé coffee, on us,” said Tim Sloan, President,
McDonald’s Co-Op of Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan. “This second
free coffee event will continue to encourage people
to see what McDonald’s has for breakfast while also rewarding longtime
guests with a free cup of coffee to accompany their favorite morning
meal.”
To
celebrate two additional weeks of free coffee, McDonald’s is calling on
people across the nation to “sip and tell” their embarrassing
pre-coffee moments on social media with
@McCafe using the hashtag #SipandTell. Select social media fans with
morning mishap stories like missing the last train to work on Monday or
leaving the house with mismatched shoes will be surprised by @McCafe
with custom gifts and experiences to help start
their morning off right.
McDonald’s
first launched its McCafé line in the U.S. in 2009. The collection
included McCafé signature blend coffee and quickly expanded
to include iced coffees, espresso-based drinks, such as lattes and
mochas, blended-ice beverages including smoothies and frappes as well as
limited-time seasonal offerings. This holiday season, customers can
again enjoy the White Chocolate Mocha, in addition
to the new White Chocolate Latte and Hot Chocolate, for a limited-time.
McCafé
fans in Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan and nationwide will soon
be able to enjoy their coffee whenever they want, including
at home. McDonald’s recently
announced a collaboration with Kraft Foods Group, Inc. to offer a
variety of McCafé ground, whole bean and single cup coffees in grocery
stores and other retailers nationwide starting in early 2015.
